Also, can you turn the *backlight* off altogether? This company's other phones seem to have that feature but no-one here has mentioned it. Thanks!

On mine, you can. You just cycle through the various stages of illumination--bright, dimmer, dimmest, and off. At least that's how mine works.

Yes you can turn off the backlight by pressing the top bar where it says dim

The screen is most definitely NOT backlit. The only lights on this phone are the Incoming Call light above the screen, and the Mute and Speaker buttons when activated. If you go to the official description at telephones.att.com, they make no mention of backlighting (or Dect 6.0 cordless compatibility either - Amazon refuses to correct these errors). The model with full screen backlighting is the CL4940.

You can click the Up navigation key on the right side of your handset and the light should go off . Sometimes it takes several attempts etc . If you go to the website Swissvoice.net , then to the E pure phone and select "contact" , you will see Frequently Asked Questions and the answer appears there .Once you are in to that site , you could contact them to get more definite info .

It is not possible to turn off the display at any time, though you can adjust brightness from 0-100. The best technique to use to conserve battery life is turn the unit off when not in use. This only takes a second or so.

No, you can not turn off the LCD. You can set the brightness to a very low level; however you can not turn it off.

My phone got pretty poor battery life (maybe 1 day or so) until I turned off the keypad light (menu --&gt; settings --&gt; backlight --&gt; duration to off). Now it gets a few days, not great, but not horrible. Your phone or charger is (or was) certainly defective--10 minutes is ridiculous. Alan

Press and hold to dim or brighten. One touch will power off the device. One touch for on will brighten to the last brightness. Hope that helps.

Yes. There is a button on the keyboard where you can toggle the backlighting off and on.

I do not believe it has a backlight, and the center button does nothing. I had hoped the center button was on/off, but it doesn't have an on/off switch. So you have to take the battery out.

The auto adjusting backlight can be turned off. Most of the preset video options dont use the dynamic backlighting. It stays constant despite room light levels.

I have several reviews that said there is no backlit display - yet the description of the product says it does have one. Is there a way to activate it or turn it on? Thank you!

Hi David, the phone uses a small plugin transformer to power the backlight. BTW the phone is a good quality and I recommend it.

The backlight can be shut off. I would not buy it again. It's a pain to use, there are too many pre set programmes.

You can totally turn off the display on the 2E. There are three brightness settings plus off. I keep mine off. Turn it on when I need to see, then off when I am done.
